Think Like A CCIE

The CCIEUK Academy site is run by a group of networking professionals in the UK. We aim to provide useful articles in Cisco data, voice and security, from beginner to expert levels. As well as working commercially in the field of IT, we also have experience of teaching Cisco qualifications. Whatever level you are studying at we believe you should study as if you are preparing to become a CCIE.

Cisco CMM for Catalyst 6500

By Jim

I had the chance earlier today to look at the Cisco Communication Media Module for a Cisco Catalyst 6500. The module is used as a gateway in a Call Manager 4 cluster. The module takes up one module slot in the Catalyst 6500 and, depending on the particular module you need, it can come with either 6 E1 or T1 ports.

It’s the first time I’ve used this particular module but setting it up as an MGCP gateway is no different from setting up any other MGCP gateway. First of all to access the CMM module you use the session command from enable mode.

6509#session slot 8 processor 0
The default escape character is Ctrl-^, then x.
You can also type 'exit' at the remote prompt to end the session

6509-VGW-CMM#

The voice module is configured through IOS commands just the same as any other Cisco voice modules or cards. However, in this particular setup the endpoint configuration is controlled via Call Manager via MGCP.

To set up the CMM as an MGCP gateway to be controlled by Call Manager you need to issue the two following commands:

ccm-manager config server call_manager_ip_address
ccm-manager config

You can now add this gateway into Call Manager and start configuring the endpoints (or E1 ports) on the device from there. It’s a fairly straightfoward excercise. Just make sure you use the same name in the Call Manager configuration as you have given your gateway.

To add the Gateway in Call Manager select Device > Gateway from the main menu. You should be presented with the Add a New Gateway configuration screen below. On this screen select Communications Media Module as the Gateway type and MGCP as the Device Protocol.

cmmconfig1

Click on the Next button and you should be presented with the Communications Media Module configuration page.  In the Domain Name field enter the hostname of the CMM module.

cmmconfig2Select the WS-X660 for Module one and then select your particular sort of CMM. For our purposes we are using the WS-SVC-CMM-6E1.  After doing this the six E1 endpoints should appear in the configuration and be available for your to configure.

Here is a copy of the full Communications Media Module configuration once the E1 ports have been configured in Call Manager.
